Starry, Starry Night…

Teacher: If you could go anywhere in the universe, where would you go? What would you do?

Student #1: I would strap myself to a comet, so when I raced through the sky like a shooting star, I could grant everyone’s wishes. I would wear a pink and white jumpsuit, with stars on the sides, and goggles with my hair flying behind me.

Student #2: I would take my ice skates and participate in the Annual Universe Ice Skating Competition, and beat aliens with three eyes and five legs, with my routine on the rings of Saturn

Student #3: I would dive into a black hole and swim towards the light at the other end. I would disappear and come out into a world where all the movies are reality, and normal life is what they watch and wish for.

Student #4: I would find the edge of the universe and then fall off. I don’t know what I would do then. I don’t really know what is there…

Student #5: I would eat extra-terrestrial food. Those space burgers and those shakes made from stardust. I would burp out newly born stars and place them in the sky.

Student #6: I would become the first real Miss Universe. I would beat those purple haired zoinks no problem. I would say, in my acceptance speech, that I wish for universe peace.

Student #7: I would date an alien. It would really annoy my parents, more than that guy on a motorbike for sure. We would try to get married but stupid planets would be against inter-specie marriage so we would protest.

I just saw Star Trek: Into Darkness. I saw explosions and flames, Benedict Cumberbatch looking so attractive when playing a genetically superior being. Oh wait, he is that in real life so I suppose he was just acting evil. I saw Chris Pine’s crazy blue eyes and sighed. I saw Zachary Quinto cry.

Honestly, it was quite an otherworldly experience, a supernatural phenomenon which got me wanting to ask you – What would you want to do if you found yourself in space?

Personally, I would like a mad man in a blue box who would whisk me away to fight angels which are demonic and make me cry in Trenzalore, but we are all entitled to our own desires. Where would you go?

As you contemplate, please make sure you have a plate of brownies. Specifically these ultra gooey, utterly indulgent brownies.

They are definitely out of this world and if I went on a universe peace-keeping mission, I would bring along a tray. Or 5.

First of all; yumm!!! these brownies look soooo good! 😛
Second of all; if i were in space i’d probs go ride the ring around Saturn, i think that would be fun haha 😛
Third of all; Merry Merry Christmas my friend!
Fourth of all; love the new layout and design of your blog! where’d you get it done?

Leave it to you Ms. Uru to have me salivating early a. m., when I’m scrolling through my email. This is just an insane combination of everything favorited in my life. The fact that it looks extra terrestrial in nature makes it all the more better :))

If I was in the sky, I’d want to sit on a cloud and watch what’s going on. If I were further out, out in space, I’d pick the Milky Way (!) to sit on and keep up my observations. Droll-worthy recipe today, CCU!

I haven’t seen such a crazy rich, utterly irresistible treat in quite some time! Brilliant use of fluff in here, by the way. To make these babies vegan, it sounds like a job for ricemallow creme to me… 😉

I think your perfectly lined up chocolate chips look like something really modern maybe something teleported here. Maybe from another planet… just kidding these brownies are so awesome that I think I find myself wandering in the kitchen checking to make sure I have all the ingredients to make them. Can I use softened marshmallows to substitute for marshmallow cream…you know living here in Hong Kong… need I say more..Take care, BAM

Uru, girl, you’ve outdone yourself! Not only did I love the writing in this post (all of those scenarios were out of this world) but holy shiznit these brownies would send my taste buds into orbit (ok, no more cheesy space-isms!). Seriously though – WOW!

“I would burp newborn starts…” Love that one! I think if I found myself in space I would just hang and see what happens. 🙂 Your cake is way over the top the my dear!!!! My sweettooth is yelling at me right now!

Haha my job is to make my friends fat so I look thin 😛 JOKES!
caramel bits should be available in Woolworths, Coles, I have even seen them in corner shops, they are the newest baking fad to which Australia has finally caught up 😛

Uru, I’ve always enjoyed gazing at the Milky Way, but I never imagined its wonders included chocolate! I hereby stand enlightened. 😉 I also loved the imaginative answers to your teacher’s question and yours. Personally, I’d settle for a transporter so I could go wherever my interstellar whims desire, including a trip to Australia on planet Earth. xo

If I found myself lost in space… I would probably pee in my pants and cry. 🙂 I like my feet firmly on the ground here on Earth…I’m such a bore that way. LOL! Star Trek always scared me a bit when I was a kid… all those aliens freaked me out.

Now what would NOT freak me out are these brownies. OMG!! Please eat two for me. YUM!

The teacher who elicited these responses must relate well to his/her students as they don’t always share their thoughts and feeling so openly.

Thank you for sharing this amazing bar cake. I LOVE Mars bars. I’ve never worked with marshmallow fluff but the ooey gooey results when combined with the melted chocolate … just decadent. I don’t know that I could get all those chocolate chips lined up so perfectly. Maybe I’d just sprinkle chocolate shavings on top instead. Or maybe a chocolate ganache coating that would harden and resemble the Mars bar even more.

PS: I made a sweet recipe yesterday as well. Pretty decadent because of the filling though much simpler in construction than this magnificent treat. 🙂

Haha I made up the scenario, I have some teachers who are very open but not to this extent 🙂
Glad you enjoyed this decadency! The initial recipe has a chocolate ganache coating but I was not trying to mimic the milky way look, jsut the flavours 😀

Oh my goodness! I commented that your last recipe was decadent, and this trumps that! I love the way those chocolate chips keep their shape. I hope we have those available in our stores. Your movie review was great, although I notice you primarily focused on the handsome young stars! 🙂 That’s good enough for me, too, CCU!

I just love the idea of ‘burping out newly born stars’ – just beautiful! I’ve spent much of the last week burping my new Grandbaby and to imagine her burping out stars is fantastic indeed!
Those Brownies are just amazing! I may have to make them and WILL have to give them away to my choir friends! 🙂

This looks great and I must make them for Mr. Picky Eater! He and I are obsessed with the new Dark Chocolate Milky Way candy bar and since you used dark chocolate – this will mimic that taste. Also, I am changing the way I follow everyone – I’m so glad you have bloglovin’. I love how that works and am changing it to that so don’t think I stopped following you. I just changed the way I do!

Having grown up with the original Star Trec with William Shatner and then Patrick Stewart on the Next Generation I have no inclination to see this version! BTW I actually have William Shatner’s autograph!
These brownies look ridiculously decadent!

What an amazing brownie extravaganza! Some of those answers sounded like the students were on a sugar high already!
I love the shooting star comment though… how nice to grant wishes.
btw: where did you fing the caramel chips??

Haha I made up the scenario after eating chocolate cake… go figure 😉
Caramel chips are the newest baking ingredients available in both Coles and Woolworths, though Marshamllow Fluff is only Woolworths – hope you find it 😀
